75. The storm is coming
"In addition, we also need a series of improvement plans." Chi Jianjun said: "The first is the update of laser weapons. In the subsequent CFA-17G model of the Phantom fighter, a pulse laser cannon was added. This laser cannon It is a weapon that combines laser and plasma. Its principle is similar to the turbolaser cannon in this universe, but it is weaker and has a faster rate of fire. The pulse laser shot will also cause an explosion, making it more suitable for dealing with large targets."
Tang Xiao nodded and signaled Professor Chi to continue.
"The next step is to install a hyperspace engine on the Ghost fighter. This is currently difficult. Because we currently do not have miniaturized hyperspace engine technology. My suggestion is that you go to the black market to find out if there is a small hyperspace engine for sale, and then You can directly use off-the-shelf ones. But this will have an impact on the appearance of the Phantom fighter, and may affect the maneuverability in the atmosphere, and more experiments are needed."
"Finally, there is the development of the stealth system. I have said this before. There is also stealth technology in the existing Kushen civilization's technology library, but the effect is slightly worse. But the advantage is that the research can be completed within three months, so First, the ghost fighter with the ability to become invisible is truly a ghost on the battlefield.”
After Professor Chi finished speaking, he said happily: "I have given you the best sword. Make good use of this sword and strive for more things for our fourth civilization!"
Before he finished speaking, his old body suddenly swayed, and several scientists behind him quickly supported him.
"Professor Chi, you..." Tang Xiao was shocked and quickly went over to support Chi Jianjun and found that his face was a little pale.
"Haha, it's okay, I just have a bad appetite recently." Chi Jianjun smiled and shook his head.
"In order to complete the development of the Phantom fighter as soon as possible, Professor Chi has been sleeping almost only two or three hours a day recently," said a scientist.
"Send Mr. Chi back to Dawn Planet for a period of training, and call Feng Yongwang over. During Mr. Chi's rest time, he will take the lead in the research work of the Engineering Science Department." Tang Xiao immediately ordered, lowering his head and facing The old man said: "Don't worry, Professor Chi, our fourth civilization will definitely rise again in this galaxy!"
…
The production of the Phantom fighter began almost immediately. Within a week, 20 Phantom fighters had already rolled off the production line. After the adjustment of the mothership's production workshop is completed, the production speed will be accelerated.
And the modification and repair work of the captured Hammerhead-class cruiser is also in full swing. The design of this battleship is indeed too old, and the power system and engine take up a lot of space. Engineers completely replaced the battleship's energy source and engine, which will save a lot of space.
In addition, after they removed all the close-in defense guns installed by Kuken, the warship actually had a full one-third more space than before. So under Tang Xiao's suggestion, all the extra space was used as a hangar.
The Hammerhead-class cruiser was originally equipped with an Orek-type light fighter, but now it is naturally equipped with a Phantom fighter. However, because the size of the Phantom fighter is twice that of the Orek fighter, it is really impossible not to increase the hangar space.
It is expected that after the hangar space is increased, this Hammerhead-class cruiser will be able to carry 18 Phantom fighters and two shuttles. With the powerful combat capabilities of the Phantom fighters, the cruiser's combat capabilities have increased dramatically.
The modification work will take another month, and Tang Xiao is not in a hurry. He now doesn't have much free time except dealing with various government affairs every day and meditating and practicing the Force on the Dawn Planet. Now the fourth civilization needs to seize every minute to develop.
…
At this time, a terrible storm is coming on Tatooine.
Broderick Gravel, a notoriously ruthless bandit who used to hang out between the Central and Outer Stars, suddenly came to Tatooine this time to smash and loot everywhere.
Originally, this was nothing new. On Tatooine, it was news when one day settled down.
But this time, things got really big! !
On the outskirts of Mos Espa, the Bounta Night Podracing venue.
In the huge starting station square, dozens of podracing cars are lined up neatly, and technical workers are skillfully making final preparations for the cars.
The podracer is composed of two high-power anti-gravity engines pulling a cockpit tow truck. It can run at a terrifying speed of almost more than 900 kilometers per hour. But the danger is also obvious. Car crashes and fatalities are common. It is strange that a few people do not die in this kind of event. But it is precisely because of this that podracing has become a feast for the blood.
Spectators from all over the surrounding galaxies gathered here to watch this galaxy-famous racing competition, which was also accompanied by huge amounts of gambling.
This racing competition is also a proud event for Tatooine's overlord, Jabba the Hutt, and an important source of income for him.
Countless spectators cheered around the square of the starting station. They all held live broadcast terminals in their hands. Even if they were sitting in the auditorium of the starting station, they could watch the entire racing competition.
The roar of the racing engine filled the sky, stimulating everyone's hormones.
There are also many people watching from a distance outside the stadium. These people are poor people who cannot afford tickets. Such people actually make up the majority on Tatooine, but poverty cannot stop their enthusiasm for racing.
Among the crowd, a 6 or 7-year-old boy was being led by his young mother. Unlike his somewhat absent-minded mother, almost all of the boy's attention was attracted by the racing car.
The little boy is very cute, with soft light brown hair, a round face with some freckles, and eyes full of spiritual light.
He looked at the racing cars intently, his eyes full of envy and longing, and his hand gripped his mother's lapel harder and harder, "Mom, when I grow up, I also want to participate in the Bangta Night racing competition!!"
The mother touched his silky hair and said softly: "Silly boy, we can just watch it here. This kind of racing is not something we slaves can afford."
The little boy stopped talking. He just turned his head and watched the racing cars on the field from a distance through the gap in the crowd. He bit his lips lightly, as if he had made up his mind.
The roar of the engines on the field became louder and louder, and the audience's emotions became more and more enthusiastic. Just when the commentator was shouting and introducing information about the racers, a sudden change occurred! !
boom! ! ! A violent explosion suddenly exploded in the square! A podracer was hit squarely, and the driver and surrounding technicians were blown directly into the sky!
